College adult education and ESOL surveys

Promoting Adult Education in Networks (PRALINE) Survey

Praline is a Erasmus+, Key Action 3 project with the general objective to “Strengthen existing transnational networks of adult education providers by means of mutual learning, peer counselling, and capacity building.”

Funded by Erasmus+ and led by MBO Raad, AoC and other equivalent organisations in 11 countries across Europe took part in the project. It aimed to share best practice of adult vocational education across multiple different European countries.

This survey was developed as part of the project’s work to ascertain the level of participation by adults in education and training within the project partnership countries, their motivations for further learning, their barriers to accessing it and the importance of promoting adult learning. The survey provides a reflection or ‘snapshot’ of a range of participants who were available, during the surveying period, to complete it. These are the views and opinions of individual institutions within the membership of the individual partners involved in the project. It does not necessarily reflect the views of the project partners. It should also be noted that the data in these samples do not fully match the national data (all participants and providers) published by Eurostat based on the Labor Force Survey and Adult Learning Survey.
